  I tried to install 2.1-960606-SNAP minimally from floppies. But I got
next message after inserting a floppy which contained bin/bin.a[a-f] and
couldn't extract bin.*.

  I couldn't find floppies/root.flp in ftp.freebsd.org. Isn't root.flp
necessary in floppy installation ?

  Has anyone succeeded in floppy installation ?
